My kids Ian and Allen love Jollibee Chicken Joy. During lazy late afternoon weekends, my hubby and I often give in to the unstoppable duo's request to have their favorite fried chicken. I have to keep my camera clicking while these two munch up half-way of the Jollibee Chicken Joy Bucket.

I joined in a blog contest and got an email from the sponsor. One requirement of the contest is for me to provide a screen cap of my entry. (sigh) This mom over here has been blogging since January of this year and though it is a bit embarrassing to admit I honestly don't know a thing about screen caps. Does anybody have this kind of experience? Oh well.

Thank God to the helpful hand of the internet. I searched for the answer to my question: "How to do a Screen Cap?" Here's what I got:

I did exactly as what is said in the instruction. Hold down Ctrl and push the "print screen" button, then open up paint and right click and push paste.

My hubby and I love to eat out when we have extra cash in our wallets. We don't normally go out on romantic dates like other married couples do. Spending time together even just for a snack and some chit chat maintains a good marriage and it strengthens our friendship.

The chilled milk tea I had was perfect; it really tasted like freshly brewed tea and it was so creamy. As for the burgers, it tasted like pure beef patties without too much seasonings; just salt and pepper. Some burgers have too much extenders, meat substitutes and seasonings. With Crave burger we got to enjoy the clean beefy taste. We walked to our home after the late snack and a totally great evening.

SereniTEA: Not Your Ordinary Cup of Tea. When this milk tea house opened along Jupiter Street, Makati City (near Buendia) two of my office mates and I dropped by to have a taste of our own SereniTEA experience.

This is how it looks at around 6:00 in the evening...it's just...Wow!
It's a perfect stop over after a stressful day at work.

Failed to get a better shot of the menu board. This is the closest I could get.

﻿﻿
﻿

Lots of milk tea fanatics trooped the area. We have to wait for our turn.

This is really cute. Once you placed your order, they'll be giving you one of these. When your milk tea's ready it will light up meaning claim your order at the counter... Cool isn't it?

﻿﻿ ﻿

Claiming our orders...

There goes the popular tag line...Serenitea; Not your ordinary cup of tea.

Chilled Tea, Milk Tea whatever kind of tea... is becoming an "in" thing nowadays and I tried several shops serving them. Serenitea's location is perfect for busy people who wanted to relax before saying home sweet home. I wanted my beverages to have that extra kick, say if it's coffee it has to have that strong bitter taste. Now, for tea I wanted it to taste like brewed tea. It tasted kinda weak on that note based on my personal preference but overall it tastes healthy and refreshing. Another healthy and unique giveaway is that with Serenitea, you can choose the level of sweetness...25%, 50%, 75% and 100% just name how sweet you want it and they'll prepare it for you.
